Sunday night at Crowbar is going to be one hell of a party. The main attraction is the return of soul singer Demi Nova, who’ll be backed by her live band in this welcome home show (she’s headed back overseas in a few weeks), but folks should stay for Ol’ Dirty Sundays, where Tampa DJ scene staple (and Red Bull Thre3style regional champ) Charles Ku guests on the ones and twos in celebration of his birthday, which arrives at midnight.

Demi Nova Welcome Home Party w/Mike Mass/Kat the Dutchess/Fre$h P/BlacqWildFlowr/DJ Amethyst. Sun. Aug. 18, 6 p.m. $9-$12. Crowbar, Ybor City. brokenmoldentertainment.com.
